Hey there, I’m Moreblessing Maturure. A Zimbabwean/ Australian inter-disciplinary artist, TEDx Speaker and the founder of FOLK Magazine.*
I’ve always had an inkling that in the future, I wouldn’t find myself in an office working a 9-to-5. Turns out it’s sitting infant of my laptop in various rooms almost 24/7 being inspired, sending invoices, and taking things from in my head into shared space. Growing up in a majority-white country did expose me to experiences I may not have had back home, for better or worse; and these experiences greatly shape the work I create and invest my time and money into. I aim to further expand my practice while creating greater opportunities for other Artists of Colour.
Most days you’ll find this nap-deprived artist having her 2nd coffee at a cafe with free wifi, using university databases to understand why the world is the way it is.
